30, startled horses, man-made swords
Gu Nian looked at Astragalus and was silent for a while before asking, "Astragalus, your kung fu is very good, right?" Even better than I could have imagined. ”
Astragalus was also silent for a moment and replied, "Yes." ”
She has been in the secret guard camp since she was born, she is a specially trained secret guard, she thought it would be a long time before she was discovered, but she didn't expect the girl to be so keen.
Gu Nian smiled a little miserably, he has lived for so long, although he is facing a new and ignorant future every time, and has experienced so many betrayals from those close to him, if he wants to grow old safely in this life, how can he not be careful and careful with the people who serve around him?
Huang Qi said that she was the daughter of You Fang Langzhong, and she was able to distinguish the poison that was only prevalent in a small area on the border of Yunnan, and the methods used to Mama Chen were so neat, which fully showed that she was not an ordinary person.
There is a master and a servant, Xiao Yue pursues violence, and Astragalus said that there is nothing that cannot be solved by force, maybe this is too far-fetched, but just now she tried it, and Astragalus admitted it frankly.
She can feel the reliability of Astragalus, that feeling is very strong, she likes her, and now she also needs such a helper as Astragalus, besides him, who else will have such the ability to arrange such a capable person by her side?
No matter what Xiao Yue's purpose of arranging people to be by her side is, she knows that she really needs someone like Astragalus to help her now.
Maybe she is not very smart, or she is very stupid, otherwise she has suffered so many losses, and she would not have put her cousin into the house because of her kindness in the last life, and finally died in vain.
But she can't pretend to be confused, even if Xiao Yue's motive for letting people go by her side is impure, but for her now, it is help, and she can't give Xiao Yue any return.
She looked at the astragalus for a while, and the astragalus looked calm and calm, without any panic.
Gu Nian sighed, and the words turned a few times on the tip of his tongue, but what he said was, "I want to write a letter, you can help me send it to the prince." ”
Astragalus was stunned for a moment, then relieved, and when the girl asked, she guessed that her identity was revealed.
Now it's better to just let yourself send the letter, that is, you are willing to use yourself, and you don't have to hide it anymore.
After Gu Nian talked to Astragalus, the original mixed emotions had precipitated, and the future was unknown.
A dreamless night.
The next day, the weather was fine.
Astragalus was grooming Gu Nian, and Ah Jing was outside fetching water for washing, but saw the girl who accompanied Gu Nian to the eldest princess's mansion last time come in with a box and a curtain.
Seeing Gu Nian, the maid called Ruizhu said lightly,
"The camellia in the house is well raised, and after it is sent, it happens that the wives and girls in the house are going to incense, and the old lady orders the slaves and maids to send ...... to the girls."
"But the other yards have been delivered?" Gu Nian sat in front of the dresser, didn't look back, and asked.
Rui Zhu's eyes swept over Gu Nian's face, and a trace of imperceptible jealousy flashed in her eyes, the old lady hated her especially because of the fifth girl, Xiao Xiao, the dead county lord, how good she looked? What if you have a backer, it's not that you're weak and disliked by the government.
She said sneeringly, "Back to the girl, the yards of several girls and aunts have already been delivered...... she smiled and handed over the box in her hand.
"The girl should open it and take a look, it's rare to have such a camellia in winter, and it matches the girl very well......"
"Astragalus send-off."
Open it up and take a look? Oh, even my aunt's yard has been delivered, and finally sent to her, what will be good? What goes well? Remnants of flowers match her?
Rui Zhu's hand handed over the box stretched out, and when he heard Gu Nian calling astragalus to send off the guest, his face suddenly turned cold, he snorted coldly, and put the box on the table on the side.
"The shelf of the fifth girl is getting bigger and bigger, and I can put the flowers here." After speaking, she walked away with a black face, but she bumped into Ah Jing with a basin of water at the door, fortunately Ah Jing flashed quickly, Rao was so, and the water was still sprinkled on her chest.
Ruizhu pointed at Ah Jing, wanted to scold, opened his mouth, thought of Gu Nian inside, exhaled his bad breath, patted his body, and went back to complain without mentioning it.
Ah Jing stuck out her tongue behind her, and went in with a basin of water, and as soon as she entered, Gu Nian said angrily, "Narrow girl." ”
Ah Jing clearly heard what Ruizhu said, and deliberately sprinkled water on her, "Girl, come and see, camellia is rare in winter......"
After Ah Jing opened the box, he couldn't say the second half of the sentence.
There are three pink camellias with broken petals, which look like they are left over after being selected.
Ah Jing hugged the box with moist eyes, "Girl, let's go quickly, how distressing it would be if the princess and the third master knew it." ”
Gu Nian had already guessed what was in the box, her face was pale, there was no disappointment or sadness, she told Ah Jing to pick up the box and go to the second gate.
When they arrived at the second gate, it happened that the old lady also came from Songhe Hall, and the group was ready to get into the carriage, and the girls in the house were wearing various camellias on their heads.
"What? Disgusted with the flowers I sent past? ”
Ah Jing was neat and knelt down, "Back to the old lady, Sister Ruizhu sent the flowers over, saying that the old lady looked at the flowers today and sent them to the girls and aunts to wear ......"
As she spoke, she opened the box, and three dilapidated flowers appeared in front of the old lady's eyes.
Old lady Yu had already guessed a few points when she looked at the flowers in the box, she looked at Ruizhu standing next to her unhappily, if it was usual, such a thing would be sent behind closed doors, but today I was going out to meet people......
Although Gu Nian is not welcomed, she is the concubine of the house.
Gu Nian smiled and said, "The flowers sent by the old lady are very good, but unfortunately I don't have the blessing to wear the leftover flowers picked by the girls and aunts." ”
Rui Zhu, who was standing beside the old lady, had a dark eye, and her feet were a little unstoppable, the fifth girl actually complained, but thinking of the old lady Yu who didn't want to see Gu Nian, her heart was stable again, who knows, the old lady Yu said,
"Ruizhu, when is the lady in the house going to pick up the rest of the things with the concubines and aunts?"
Rui Zhu listened to a little face that turned pale, knelt down and kowtowed, "The old lady spares her life, the slave knows that she is wrong, the slave and maid are not intentional, and the flowers are accidentally sent to the wrong person...... The five girls spared their lives, and the slaves were wrong......"
She kept kowtowing, where was there still the same domineering just now, and there was no one in her eyes.
Gu Ci wanted to see Gu Nian's joke, but seeing this, he walked over and said, "Fifth sister, Ruizhu is her grandmother's personal maid, and she has to wait for her grandmother, for the sake of her grandmother, please spare her this time." ”
Ruizhu was still begging for mercy, but Old Madam Yu didn't speak, meaning to listen to Gu Nian.
Gu Nian smiled, her gaze fell lightly on Ruizhu's body, and said lightly,
"This girl is so uncareful, she actually provoked the friendship of our ancestors and grandchildren, she should have been driven out of the house, but she is gone, and there are fewer intimate people around the old lady, the old lady, just spare her this time.
It's just that, Sister Ruizhu, before you do anything in the future, you must think that you are the old lady's maid, representing the old lady's face. ”
Rui Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole person collapsed on the ground, and listened to the old lady add coldly, "Xiao Wu is right, this girl is so provocative, then slap her mouth for twenty as punishment, and the executioner is not allowed to show mercy." ”
Then got into the carriage with Gu Ci's support.
Rui Zhu was stunned for a while before she cried like crazy, her eyes glared at Gu Nian fiercely, she was so beautiful, she was really twenty times, not to mention her face, her teeth might be loose, and she blamed the fifth girl.
After this delay, the sun has risen.
Gu Nian sat in the last carriage, and the old lady in front of him ordered the coachmen to speed up and arrive before noon.
After the coachman got the order, he didn't dare to delay, and accelerated forward, Gu Nian's carriage was an ordinary carriage, and it was soon left behind by the carriage in front, and the two pillars of incense went out of the city gate and drove on the small road outside the city.
When she was less than half a mile away from Hanshan Temple, Gu Nianren was in the car, only to feel the carriage shake down, and then there was a neighing of horses, and she was thrown on the carriage fiercely, and then fell heavily from the wall of the carriage.
The horse was shocked!
The astragalus sat near the door, after the horse was frightened, it opened its hooves and ran wildly, the astragalus grabbed the door with his hand, but was still thrown down, and the coachman did not know when to fall.
Ah Jing screamed in the carriage, wanting to help Gu Nian, but the carriage shook violently.
Gu Nian clutched the car window tightly, saw Astragalus chasing after him, and shouted to her, "Go to Hanshan Temple and wait for me." ”
After only shouting twice, she couldn't support it, the curtain of the car was blown by the wind and hit her face, her internal organs were turned upside down, but Gu Nian's brain was extremely clear.
Who is trying to harm her?
The weird smiling face that Gu Ci had just now had just before he got on the horse suddenly appeared in his mind, and Gu Nian suddenly realized.
Her laughter is not because she made Ruizhu hate herself, she laughed because she arranged all this, but she didn't know anything about it, and fell into the trap step by step.
It is impossible for a horse to be frightened for no reason, either because it has been pricked by something, or it has eaten the fodder in question, and the medicine has come out.
Gu Nian clung to the handrail, hoping that the horse would be tired of running, stop quickly, and she could escape from the carriage as soon as possible.
But the horse seemed to be tireless, and went on a rampage, and had no intention of stopping.
Gu Nian was dizzy, she gritted her teeth desperately, and she had to comfort Ah Jing loudly.
She had to find a way to stop quickly, otherwise, both she and Ah Jing would die.
While she was thinking, the horse neighed and stopped suddenly.
The horse stopped too quickly, she didn't have time to react, she was thrown heavily on the wall of the carriage, hitting her with stars in her eyes, her head splitting, before she could get up, the curtain of the car 'swished' opened, she was grabbed by the chest, and thrown to the ground.
She was about to get up, one foot stepped on her back, she couldn't move, she could only lie on the ground in embarrassment, she didn't have time to shout, she heard a voice from behind,
"It's a pity that I can't sell it in the kiln, but the ones I collected before are enough."
Then she was knocked unconscious by a force......
